I realized midway through Rogue One that I was actually watching a terrorist hagiography, so let's talk about that. (This post should not be taken anywhere near as seriously as my other rants, but I do intend it to be more serious than the "Alderaan had it coming" mentality some corners of the internet have. I may veer into r/EmpireDidNothingWrong territory here occasionally, and I hope you will take it as inoffensively as possible.)

After squatting over the franchise and curling out The Farce Awakens, Disney decided to do a movie that didn't have any Skywalkers or Jedi in it. Finally! Because that was what the fans wanted!

Revenge of the Sith is awful
Fine. I'll do it.
I still can't get over a franchise called Star Wars - "war" being right there in the title - thinks that war is so egregious and abnormal that it has to highlight the fact that the galaxy is at war in the very first sentence of the opening crawl.
